The Supreme Court of Arizona just slapped down a petition to immediately hear failed candidate Kari Lake's case in which she falsely claims that the 2022 election for governor was fraudulent. In their decision, the Supreme Court wrote that "no good cause appears to transfer the matter to this court."
This was a predictable outcome.
Via Fox 10:
Election law attorney Tom Ryan said on Jan. 3 that he believes Arizona's high court will toss the lawsuit.
"Election contests are supposed to be done and completed within 10 days of the canvass," said Ryan. "They were given all the opportunity to have a trial. Judge [Peter] Thompson allowed in a lot of evidence most judges would not allow in, but he wanted to do it so he could show he gave due consideration and weighed the evidence."
Kari Lake knows she lost the election, just as Donald Trump knows he lost the 2020 election. It's all a grift with election deniers. How many times has she lost now? She will collect more Ls than Kevin McCarthy if she keeps this up. It used to be that losing gracefully was an attribute, but if you're a Republican who denies reality, your base cheers you on.
